Thanks a lot for the picture example. This is perhaps nicer than what I was originally thinking! :D
View ArticleBlinkt: Having To Run Scripts Twice
I'm pretty sure that this is down to me but I'm having to run scripts twice to get the Blinkt LEDs to react. I'm seeing this with both node-blinks and the Pimoroni example scripts such as rgb.py. So,...

Hello Pimoroni community! I am very new to using the GPIO on Raspberry Pi's and decided to get the Raspberry Pi Zero and Explorer pHAT to get into it. However, as I am a complete noob to this, I have...

With the size the Zero and the length of the black hat do you think it would be worth it to get a mini and desolder/modify that board instead to provide an overall smaller form factor? Nevermind I...
View ArticleAre there any plans to allow ordering more than one Pi Zero at a time?
Now that supply of the Raspberry Pi Zero is improving (and/or demand has dropped off) are there any plans to allow more than 1 Raspberry Pi Zero per order in the near future? I've been watching...

Well, it's definitely possible to use the mini-hacker and configure it in a similar manner...however you will barely save 1cm, and more importantly you will no longer have mounting points to support...

@RogueM Thanks for the opinion on the two. I think I will definitely go with the standard sized one. What is your opinions on the touch screens? Capacitive touch seems like the best option but the...

I haven't really used any touch screen HATs myself, so I can't comment from a first hand perspective. ... I assume you're considering this...

That was the resistive option yes because it would fit the board properly. For the capacitive option I was thinking of this one. https://www.adafruit.com/products/2423 Its not really going to be your...

That other one has only one usable support for the back, but there's no reason you couldn't stick something suitable to the black hacker to support the other side, if that was your preferred choice.

@RogueM Yeah that was what I was thinking, Putting the standoff on the black hacker to give the support. What standoffs would be appropriate for this? Actually with what I've discussed what standoffs...

As I said, I believe the ones supplies will be adequate. The trouble is that the left hand side falls just where the display connector happens to be, so you'd want to glue something in a different...

Ah yes looking at the back I was afraid of this as well. By the 3-D printer comment I meant a stand off that would avoid pressing on this area.
